Well, I don't know many people that wouldn't say glowing things about their new boss in a newspaper, but regardless, here's Sid's tid-bit:
"High on Kaler
Gophers athletic director Joel Maturi was asked for his early impression of Eric Kaler, who took over as university president this month.
"I've had the opportunity to meet with him three times and he's been very energetic, enthusiastic, passionate about certainly the University of Minnesota, and I think he understands the role of athletics," Maturi said. "I do know that when I spoke to the athletic director at Stony Brook when President Kaler had been named the president of the University of Minnesota [last fall], he spoke extremely highly of President Kaler and said he was very, very supportive and really wanted to be involved. We're glad that he's here."
Meanwhile, outgoing president Robert Bruininks won't be attending any college events for a while, after falling and breaking his leg."
